If you're like most people, taking the first step toward improving the way you look and feel can be a little intimidating.

Brachioplasty, or arm lift, is a plastic surgery procedure that removes excess skin to tighten and tone the appearance of your upper arms. In some cases, this loss of skin elasticity is merely due to the natural aging process. If the extra skin on your upper arms keeps you from wearing your favorite clothes or wanting to raise your arms over your head, consider an arm lift to restore a youthful looking contour to your arms.

The wrinkles and excess skin can significantly age your appearance, especially when the face is still fairly firm and youthful. A neck lift is one way to improve your overall look and slow down the aging process for those who do not need a facelift. Charlotte, North Carolina is home to Criswell & Criswell Plastic Surgery, where their staff will tighten neck muscles, remove excess fat, and improve your profile to reduce the unpleasant appearance of a "turkey wattle."

It helps improve the jaw line, to give the face a more youthful appearance. Generally, the neck is also treated during the same surgery, which helps give the patient a cohesive refreshed look. Our surgeons routinely add fat transfer during this procedure, as we believe this stem cell-rich addition bolsters the rejuvenation by restoring youthful volume.

Some patients have come to us after pregnancy, childbirth, or after significant weight loss has left their breasts sagging and drooping. Both saline and silicone breast implants are available, and each type has different qualities. Saline implants are filled after placement, which involves a smaller incision, and silicone implants have an extremely natural feel. We can discuss your choices and the various shapes and sizes of each, and the procedures necessary to place them, so you can come to an informed decision.

read moreThere are many myths about BOTOX, one of which is the idea that this treatment is just for women. In fact, the treatment has grown increasingly popular for men who are looking to improve the appearance of crow's feet, forehead creases, or frown lines. These lines, wrinkles, and creases can age a man and leave permanent expression lines even when the face is at rest. BOTOX works to smooth deep lines and wrinkles and give your face a fresher, more youthful look. It is an easy outpatient procedure that allows you to get treatment and then get on with your day.
